Specification of Letters Patent. 5 Patented Sept. 20, 1921.

Application filed May 19, 192a serial .No. 382,557.

T 0 all whom it mayconcern:

Be it known that HARRY Hnss, a citizen of the United States, residin at Sparks, in the county of Washoe and btate of Nevada, has invented certain new and useful Improvements in Smoking-Pipes, of which the following is a specification. reference being bad to the accompanying drawings.

This invention relates to smoking pipes and particularly to a smoking pipe capable of preventing nicotin from passing through the stem of the pipe.

With the common form of smoking pipe,

the stem s, connected directly to the bowl of the pipe "a 'd con equently the nicotin is drawn tlough the stem of the pipe together with the smoke.

It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a smoking pipe which eliminates this disadvantage by providing means where by the nicotin is separated from the smoke before the smoke enters the stem of the pipe.

Another object of the invention is to provide a smoking pipe of this character wherein the smoke and other matter leaving the bowl of the pipe at the same time are permitted to travel a short distancmbefore being separated, the nicotin and like matter collecting in a receptacle .while the smoke is permitted to pass through the stem of the pipe.

Another object is to provide a smoking pipe of this character including a bowl and a nicotin trap or receptacle disposed beneath the bowl, and means connecting the bowl to the receptacle and also providing communication between the bowl and the receptacle.

Another object of the invention is to provide a smoking pipe of this character wherein the bowl of a conventional form of pipe may be used without requiring alterations.

A still further object of the invention is to provide a smoking pipe of this character which does not interfere with the draft or suction through the pipe.

With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the improved construction and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more particularly described, fully claimed and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 1 is a vertical elevation and sectional view of a smoking pipe constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the invention, and

Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view of the nicotin trap or receptacle.

Referring to the drawings, designates a nicotin trap or receptacle, the trap having an inlet opening 6 in one side and an outlet opening 7 in the other side, said openings be ing alined. The bottom of the receptacle is provided with a concavity so as to permit matter thatenters the receptacle to readily collect in the bottom.

A tobacco receiving bowl 8 is;,disposed upon the receptacle 5 and is intended to be supported by said receptacle. The bowl 8 is provided with the usual outlet opening 9, said opening being disosed above the inlet opening 6 of the recept cle." A conduit memher 10 is provided, said conduit being preterably U-shape in formation and having its ends reduced, said reduced portions being disposed in parallel relation to each other. One end of the conduit 10 is intended to be disposed in the inlet opening 6 of the recep tacle. The other end is intended to be dis posed in the outlet opening 9 of the bowl '8. A pipe stem 11 is provided, and has its end 12 reduced and threaded, said reduced portion being screwed into the outlet opening 7 of the receptacle.

In use, the smoke leaves the bowl 8 of the pipe in the usual manner and travels through the conduit 10 into the trap or receptacie 5. Here the nicotin is deposited and the smoke permitted to pass out through the outlet opening 7 and pipe stem 11. In view of this novel arrangement, if desired a curved pipe stem may be used in place of the straight stem. This invention also permits the use of a conventional form of bowl, as to alterations such as the formation of chambers, etc, is necessary. l urthermore, the draft or suction of the pipe is not interfered with as the smoke is permitted to leave the pipe in the well-known manner and the nicotin is not separated upon the stem until it reaches the receptacle 5.

In view of the above, it will be readily seen that this invention provides a novel smoking pipe which provides all the desirable features of smoking, without any of the disadvantages, and these features are pos sessed by a device that is simple and compact.

What I claim is 1. A smoking pipe comprising .1 recs tacle having opposed openingsin its waliii,

a howl on said receptacle, said bowl having a conveniid'nal outlet port, a conduit memher having one end disposed in the outlet port of the bowl and itsother end disposed 5 in one of the openings of the receptacle, and a pipe stem disposed in the remaining openingof the receptacle.v L 2. An attachment for a conventional form of smoking pipe comprising a receptacle 10 adapted to engage the bottom of a bowl of a smoking pipe, a goose-neck conduit adapted to connect the bowl to the goose-neck being disposed exteriorly of the bowl and the receptacle,

and a pipe stem carried by and communicating with the re- HARRY HF-SS.
